Wi-Fi Access Policy for JLab Business Flyers
With the advent of airplane Wi-Fi, the JLab policy on reimbursement of communications costs is being revised. While on business travel, airplane Wi-Fi may be reimbursed on expense reports for flights lasting longer than two hours. Additionally, if Wi-Fi is not provided at no extra charge in hotels, the cost for Wi-Fi service, which typically includes long distance phone service, may also be reimbursed on the expense report. If such Wi-Fi costs are reimbursed, they will be in lieu of personal and/or business phone calls placed from the room. Discounts on airplane Wi-Fi is available from GogoInflight.com, when purchased before the flight, on AirTran, Delta, American, US Airways and United. For the holidays, you can get free Wi-Fi on all AirTran and Delta flights through Jan. 2. If you know of other in-flight Wi-Fi service providers, contact Carol Kinsey at kinsey at jlab.org.

Rooms are available to JLab users, staff and family members every day, even during the Holiday Shutdown. For reservations, visit the website or call 757-223-1167.
